### 22.5 Specifying HTML <body> attributes

You can use configuration settings to assign values to HTML <body> attributes:

    [Attributes]
    ; body= attributename=value

Keep all attributes on one line, regardless of line length. For XHTML, all attribute names must be lowercase. For example:

    [Attributes]
    body= bgcolor="#FFFFE1" text="#000080" link="#008020" vlink="#804000"

You can insert JavaScript for <body> attributes; for example:

    [Attributes]
    body= onLoad="if (self != top) top.location = self.location"

In addition to attributes for the <body> tag, you can use the [Attributes] section to specify attribute values for <table>, <tr>, <td>, <th>, <thead>, <tfoot>, and <tbody> tags; see §33.4.1 Specifying attributes for all tables.
